2 servings of dairy or more
http://www.mizfrogspad.com/South_Be...1_Food_List.htm
has nice summary and it limits bacon to 2 slices but not dairy.
Somewhere else here it says 2 servings. I love cheese and I don't think it stalls me - I use low fat (70/30) though.
Dixiemom, nearly everyone stalls after induction/phase 1! Your body needs to switch. In the first weeks, you loose the carb stores in your muscle and liver, and the associated water (like starch retains the water), and when that is gone, most poeple stall until the body realizes, "oops, nothing left, I have to switch to fat burning" - just make sure you now drink enough water (the fat burning needs it), and don't let your body go into starvation by skipping snacks. I always re-started losses by eating snacks dutifully - not much, just a hard boiled egg or a veggie quiche or so.
